Everyone thinks it's normal, right?

And then when you question it, people are like, well, what's wrong with you?

It's always been.

So it was actually I was in a meeting in Barcelona when the initial data was discussed.

And that's what totally floored me.

We had an international meeting and I think there was only nine black people in it.

Their Asian arm came from Japan, primarily a handful of of of Latino people.

maybe one or none Pacific Islanders or Native Americans.

And we're looking at a disease like Alzheimer's that expresses itself twice as much in African-Americans and one and a half times as much as Latinos.

But here we have a drug that didn't even include them in the study.

And so I worked with a colleague.

We wrote a grant to try to look at a way of improving diversity in clinical trials.

And the grant just ended.

And I'm working now on making it part of our infrastructure.

So it's part of our of what we do.
